Married to the President novel Chapter 104

"Julia!!" Carol Li yelled. It was late, Rita couldn't take it anymore, she started sobbing loudly and hurriedly stood up, covering her face and ran out of the residence.

Carol Li stood up and ran after her. Cheng Li did the same and the voice of Carol Li was heard calling out to Rita to stop running. It's dangerous for the baby.

Cheng Li called the servants and told them to run after Rita. She's pregnant and the baby might be in danger.

The dining room became vacant except for Julia who remained seated and continued having his meal.

The servants went after Rita and brought her back. She was sobbing quietly. She tried to free herself from the grip but couldn't.

Carol Li came to her and held her in a warm embrace. She took her back into the mansion and pacified her.

But Cheng Li was surprised when he saw Julia still seated on the dining table and having his dinner.

He squinted and wondered what kind of a person Julia is. He could still sit comfortably and have dinner when his wife almost hurt the baby in her belly?

"Julia!!, Come here!" Cheng Li thundered. Reluctantly, Julia stood up and came over to his parents. He looked like nothing had happened.

"Did you realise that your words hurt your wife?" Carol Li demanded, glaring angrily at her son.

"What did I say that is wrong or untrue? Isn't she close to me because of my money? She will get the money but not my heart.."Julia said .

But the next thing Julia heard was nothing to be compared to what he felt on his chin. His mother slapped him angrily.

"Enough of the insult Julia! Every woman deserves to be Respected. She is carrying your child. When a man insults the mother of his unborn child, he insults his child.

Whatever or however your coming together is, I do not care. She is carrying my grandchild and if anything happens to that child Julia, I will sever my ties with you!!" Carol Li threatened.

Julia gently placed his hand on his chin. No one expected Carol Li to go drastic with her son like she did.

Rita raised her head and looked at Julia with reddened eyes and saw the latter glaring at her with a killing intent.

She looked away. Cheng Li stared at his son as well. He had made them lose face before a woman he brought to the residence for the first time.

How can a man have no regard for the mother of his unborn child? He didn't say anything but inwardly, applauded his wife for shutting him up the way she did.

"For the first time in my life mum, you slapped me because of Rita?" Julia asked, he wasn't glaring at his mother but at Rita.

The thoughts of it infuriated him most. His stare was like fire burning hot within Rita. She was shivering and Carol Li drew her closer.

"You have to mind the way you treat Rita if you don't want to experience worse things than being slapped," Carol Li declared.

"Dad, did you hear that? Mum just slapped me because of a woman. What's actually happening with everyone in this family?

My brother insisted that I marry Rita for the pregnancy sake, Theresa spent a long time sermonizing me and now, my own parents are against me as well because of the same woman?

Who's more important to you all? Is it the baby inside of her, or Rita or myself? Why am I being treated like a stranger by my own family?" Julia was furious.

"You shouldn't expect to be treated like a prince by your family while you trampled on someone else's daughter. If she were your sister, would you love it if a man, her husband , speaks so mean to her?" Cheng Li asked.

Carol Li didn't pay her son attention anymore. She offered Rita a tissue paper and the latter cleaned her tears.

She was calming her despaired mood. She told her not to allow Julia's sassy words hurt her or make her feel depressed.

It's not about her alone but the baby she's carrying should be her priority before making a decision or doing anything improper.

"Rita, let's go!!" Julia ordered. He glared at her with a cold face and his mother replied and said Rita is not leaving with him that evening.

"If you don't come along now,then forget about me completely" Julia threatened. Rita held her mother-in-law's hand and pleaded with her to let her go.

She would be fine. Julia isn't going to do anything to her. After a satisfactory assurance from Rita that she would be fine did Carol Li let her go.

Julia stormed out and Rita followed him. She slipped into the car and Carol walked over to Julia and said " Julia dear, please take care of her"

As soon as the Chauffeur drove out to Li's residence, Julia started quarrelling and talking to Rita as he likes.

"This marriage isn't going to last. Once the baby is born, we get divorced. I feel suffocating and caged by it.

Enjoy my money while you remain in my mansion and I will offer you whatever you like and leave my life forever"Julia stated.

"If that is what you want, I will gladly sign a divorce paper with you. You are a two faced sword. Your true personality is evolving out of its shell.

Your previous life that I know is a mere mirage. You are a wolf in sheep's clothing" Rita declared.

If she had known he was less than a human, she would never have dated him. He had only shown her a side that was not his true self.

He only showered her so much love just to have her in his bed and satisfy his desires. Now that he doesn't want her body anymore, he reveals who he truly was.

She regrets ever loving him. She should never have opened her heart to him like she opened her legs. She feels bitter about her feelings for him.

" Watch your words when talking to me. I won't let you talk to me rudely or insult me" Julia yelled at her.

" If I do, what will you do? You think you are some idol that should be worshipped? If you talk to me rudely or insult me again, I will give it back to you, same measure" Rita replied angrily.

She hissed between gritted teeth and snorted. She isn't going to be weak anymore. Sometimes, men need to be treated the way they really deserve.
